Basic equipment of the R-Spec includes the 2.0T 2.0L turbocharged engine rated at 210hp (157kW), a six-speed manual transmission (no automatic option), 19in alloy wheels wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tires, and Brembo brakes - 13.4in up front, 13.0in in back. A 'track-tuned' suspension and Torsen-type limited-slip differential offer improved handling over the standard Coupe, while R-Spec badging lets onlookers know what's under all the aftermarket gear.
Other standard elements - not so common on a stripped-down track day car, but handy for a daily driver - include keyless entry, front, side and side curtain airbags, active front head restraints, air conditioning, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, power windows and door locks, an MP3-capable six-speaker stereo system with iPod/USB conncetivity and projector beam headlamps.
The basic package offers as much performance as the Track model, but at a $3,000 discount, freeing up some cash for whatever the buyer might like to add - perhaps a larger turbo, intercooler and associated electronics, or maybe a serious audio/video system and a unique paintjob. Whatever the mods, the R-Spec goes the extra mile to draw in the tuner market. Only sales will show how successful Hyundai has been.
The remainder of the Genesis line also received pricing today, with the basic 2.0T starting out at $22,000 and ranging upwards to $31,000 for the top-of-the-line 3.8L V6 Track model. Full pricing details are below.
